Wireless
It won't repeat anything other than the one network it's programmed to. They don't have to be the same brand as the router but that makes getting help easier - then you can call the one company instead of playing ring-around-the-phone to find a tech who'll help you.
Basically, it picks up the wireless network it's programmed to - just like your computer. Then, it re-broadcasts it just like you main router but from a different location. Some support full encryption, others don't so read the box to make sure it supports both WEP and WPA-PSK. The one draw-back is because it has to recieve and then re-transmit everything, it cuts the speed by half...but that's not a problem for most people because internet is still the slowest link in the chain. I have a Belkin WURE (Wireless Universal Range Extender) and it works well with all encryption but the directions were worthless so I had some trouble setting it up.

How do you enable the wireless hardware radio on your windows xp desktop computer?
If the wireless network card it propely installed and you also have a wireless router, then look for the signal coming from the router and connect the computer to it. (double click on the connection's icon in the system tray and choose View Wireless Networks)
Question for Wireless network
Wireless networking?
QuestionI have just purchased myself a speedtouch 576 wireless modem router. I have managed to successfully connect to the internet using the ethernet connection.
We have 2 laptops in the house, one with built-in wireless capabilities (&windows xp OS) and the other has a wireless radio card (but with windows 2000 OS). I have been trying all morning to get them to connect wirelessly, but without any luck. Does anyone know how to create a wireless network here, where both computers have different operating systems?
Best Answer
answersThe Operating Systems won't mean anything. Just make sure your wireless router is set up as a Wireless Access Point and not a Wireless Bridge. Then go into you laptops' wireless properites and search for new connections(wireless access points). Once one is found, just click on it and tell it to connect. This should solve your problem.
